It’s Friday! And I’m here, as always, with your Stream of Consciousness Saturday prompt. It’s been a smoky week here in southern Ontario, as it has been for many areas around the Great Lakes. My heart, though, goes out to the communities up north who have lost everything to the fires. There are lots of charities all over North America that help the victims of wildfires; if you can, please consider donating. Here’s your prompt:
Your Friday prompt for Stream of Consciousness Saturday is “sometimes.” Start your post with the word “sometimes.” Have fun!
After you’ve written your Saturday post tomorrow, please link it here to this week’s prompt page and check to make sure it’s here in the comments so others can find it and see your awesome Stream of Consciousness post. Anyone can join in!

Sometimes you have to bite the bullet
Keep your mouth shut, do not respond
Sometimes you just can’t say it
And maintain the family bond.
So much busyness, so much stress
Things get personal, but don’t address.
The world condition will change soon
And still turns with sun and moon
So take a moment before you say
What you think every day.

“Advice is a noun meaning an opinion, recommendation, or guidance offered to help someone make a decision or take action. It is distinct from advise (a verb meaning to give counsel).”
